Auto-retire candidate · 109d
📊 Alakazam & Dark Romance SKUs went to $0 sales yesterday — across Shopify AND TikTok Shop
Flagged in #claude-insights daily callout. Each normally runs ~$1K/day on Shopify — worth an inventory/OOS check.
⏱ Watch Flag retire candidate — Gemini 3.5 Flash Live API (Day 98 not triggered)
3.5 Flash has no Live API support (still on 3.1 Flash Preview only). 98 consecutive days not triggered. Retire when you’re ready.
About 1 week out — touches the dashboard data pipeline. Confirm the workaround before the cutover.
📋 Clicky+ Roadmap doc is stale — last synced 2026-06-05
~2.5 months behind actual work (Sharpen Prompt design 8/24, Hands-Off pose fix 8/23, VTT latency investigation 8/22 all missing from it). Worth a resync via the clicky-roadmap skill.

Action Items (AI)
Worth a look
Check Settings > Memory > Topics now that chat and Cowork share one memory pool
You run parallel sessions (Amazon vs. DTC forecasting, Clicky+, Leverage) — confirm nothing cross-pollinates, and set the sensitive-topics toggle deliberately.
Consider
Use unified memory as the trigger to finally close the 109-day-idle Leverage item “How can Claude be more proactive?”
FYI only
No action needed on OpenAI’s Admin plugin or Jalapeño — neither touches your current stack

Industry Moves
